hi opfish,

congrats on ur new guitar.. smile.gif

hope u can share with me something about ordering online... smile.gif

which website did u order from? how much cheaper than buying locally? how long before the guitar arrive? how much the tax?

i think someone shud start a pinned thread on the procedure, advice and steps on ordering guitar from overseas huh?agree? tongue.gif

if i can save more by getting it from overseas, i dont mind waiting as i can spend more on my amp then!! biggrin.gif

Your actually not saving alot.
You have more choices online. But after working out the tax and all that, could be the same price.

and the epi custom limited edition silverburst is just usd500 (r~rm1500-1800) ,so much cheaper!! if only i live in jap or us...ahhhhhh cool2.gif
